Gold for the Calf
It can't happen here...
Frank Zappa was always a genius
My mind twists in the wind--
Wisps of reality
mingling with fragile fantasies
A cacophony winding 'round
keening cries of the hungry
politicians at the podium
painted lips chirping inanities
in themes of Paris Hilton
American Idol and that lot
When did the compass move?
My own oily wants shift
with endless commercials--
today's latest gadgets in vivid technicolor
Moral fiber entrenched in material
Inanimate things now the gods
and all the while
slicking over a stench--
a cesspool on a sultry day
